mircea_popescu: anyway, it's directly evident the most rabid of libertards realised clinton ain't got it ; and are in their grief dealing mode. pronouncements that "the election is rigged" (phrased, of course,
as "this was an unedifying year" blabla), assurances that "whoever wins will be a single term president"
as if that fixes anything ; even a pretense that putin will take advantage of trump. specifically.
as if a) it isn't in the nature
mircea_popescu: That he has been able to surf these scandals regularly
as little more than free media opportunities shows that American democracy is in serious need of rehabilitation." << in my view, this settles an ancient point of contention curtis yarvin never manned up to, re "the cathedral" or generally how pervasive, or "in power" the idiots are.
mircea_popescu: general in teh field gets to use his assets
as he pleases.
mircea_popescu: if they spoke russian they'd be called oligarchs, but
as it is...
a111: Logged on 2016-11-02 15:11 asciilifeform: and
as phf points out, it leaves you open to attack where the craftmachine is pwned and gives you a wallet-emptier to happily carry to the bunker and sign..
thestringpuller:
as of current you have to dump block on TRB in order to manually grep for a tx-hash to use
as an Input to construct a raw transaction
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform works about
as well
as everything else usg.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the point being, the miner cartel brink-of-war event didn't proceed, but "equipment" derived from it is now widely deployed, and
as you can observe it can selectively disappear txn from the mempool.
mircea_popescu: notwithstanding that they are reported
as doublespends.
mircea_popescu: that finally got irretrievably broken
as i reported here a while back.
phf: that seems tricky,
as far
as my work is concerned, definitely version 3
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform EXACT same
as the derps doing nuke security explained they expect in yest linked article. "that the authorised people can launch easily and no one else can period."
mircea_popescu: IF the wallet is correctly implemented (
as discussed, text files etc), then fixing any problem is trivial for the operator.
mircea_popescu: alternatively, wallet could run
as entirely separate process, and relay its txn by connecting to a node
as if it were a node. except it asks for no txn.
mircea_popescu:
https://archive.is/LCAnf << even the most rabid socialists. the tinge of schadenfreude, delicious
as it may be, is still the only distinguishing decoration between "tory" and labour.
BingoBoingo of the monthly dispatches most eagerly awaits S.NSA
as usual
mircea_popescu: they opposed collegiate education for girls,
as well
as voting in israel etc. i dunno any group teh usg hates moar.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Much
as same derps never find Peace
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing known in nature
as "incompatible abstractions"
mircea_popescu: su is and always was ~
as productive
as say turkey. orcland.
mircea_popescu: all the su stick produced was a horde of anal children. almost
as if humans are all on the same mind, and even if you keep the borders locked and the sticks sticking, idiot ru citizen will mirror idiot eu citizen nevertheless
mircea_popescu: rectum is also ~80% gas, so connection over butt is almost
as good too.
BingoBoingo: Sure, now's
as good a time
as any. I was going to save rickets for a very Qntra X-mas story, but a holiday is a holiday.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, the txid
as used in mempool and the txid
as used in block is not required to match.
mod6: sure, i think going block -> certainly fits into the same paradigm
as eatblock/dumpblock.
mircea_popescu: mod6 note i'm not even discussing a special fs. that's a while down the road. for now, all that's needed is some serious profiling work, to see how we store the thing. prolly
as block = file ? and just use a normal ext4 or w/e
BingoBoingo: Anyways, reall Halloween truth. When Elliot was in that Spielberg movie ET, Elliot did not dress up the alien
as a ghost. Elliot dressed the alien up
as a klansman.
mod6: Another long term goal is to possibly get some more unit tests written for trb. Might not even need to be something in the perm source base, but something
as an overlay to give us confidence when we make critical changes down the road.
mod6: I suspect the long term plan will come into better focus
as we start to dig into some of these short term ones though.
mod6: Well, short term, I think the current goal is to get through some of these vpatch submissions
as we said we would. Hopefully get through a bunch by year end. (Jan 8th) However, the longer term goal is to work on Ideal bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: i think it's a very bad idea to misrepresent this (here)
as "selling the box" because it'll cause you nothing but frictive grief.

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-31#1560469 < would you mind reviewing arsttep? I'm shipping it with each machine
as part of the manual and would like for others to be able to understand it.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "CenturyLink Acquiring "Level 3"
As Internet Transit Routes Consolidates" << consolidate ?
gabriel_laddel: translates js to parenscript and parenscript to js, integrated with the conkeror web browser (has same keybindings
as emacs)
gabriel_laddel: trinque:
as for what is included: McCLIM integrated with: macsyma, femlisp, MJRCALC, a manual, nope.js and more-or-less broken prototypes of everything else on the splash screen screenshot.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what, because you have a magic ball and know wtf he's looking at
as he says that ?
phf: mircea_popescu: dog slow is same
as intractable but applied to system design, solution that theoretically works but in practice takes too long to be useful. depending on the kind of algorithms involved dog slow has different solutions, like if it's a linear algorithm, then you can solve dog slow with a faster machine, but if it's a polynomial complexity algorithm, then dog slow might be solved by putting constraints on inputs
mircea_popescu:
as far
as anyone knows, dog slow kinda means exactly that "irritatingly slow to me", to which "i don't feel any delays" is a valid counter.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> pro tip : you can still jumpstart cars today
as in 1916 << Some German "innovashuns" are exceptions. Unless your bar for "jumpstarting" only carries to turning motor over then still true.
mircea_popescu: somehow they elide the obvious point that his right move, and his coherent with himself move, is to simply FIRE EVERYONE and then hire people
as he perceives the need.
mircea_popescu:
as ~everyone with two neurons to rub together has been disabused of this notion, the next guy who wants to change.org might
as well point a nuke to the white house.
mircea_popescu: people somehow bought into this "public opinion
as an aggregate of the supposed opinions of irrelevant individual cattle MATTERS!!1", and so we had wikileaks.

trinque: reminds my of my parents idiot dog that nervously stares at you
as if to say "I am good boy???"
mircea_popescu: very weird, the list of nonsense these people sprout. it's
as if they have 0 reflexive capacity whatsoever, how am i supposed to distinguish google "ai" from some douche who spits out " Your style of just summarily shitting on how the author wrote this piece adds no value to the discussion." ?
☟︎ trinque lives in emacs, has it
